City Council Speaker Christine Quinn gave it her best shot.
She was one of 15 legislators who learned firsthand yesterday what it's like to shoot a weapon and be a cop on the street -- after being invited by Police Commissioner Ray Kelly to the NYPD firing range in The Bronx.
Kelly and his officers schooled the council members on using guns in simulated crime situations designed to give the lawmakers a better understanding of what cops face. He had invited all 51 members shortly after The Post reported that a bill had been introduced in Albany requiring cops to shoot to wound, not kill.

All 15 committed a felony when they held and shot the handgun if they did not have a handgun license issued under PL 400. They should all be arrested.

NY Law:
Section 265.01 Criminal possession of a weapon in the fourth degree
A person is guilty of criminal possession of a weapon in the fourth degree when:
(1) He possesses any firearm (handgun)...

Section 265.02 Criminal possession of a weapon in the third degree
A person is guilty of criminal possession of a weapon in the third degree when:
...
(4) Such person possesses any loaded firearm.
...
Criminal possession of a weapon in the third degree is a class D felony.

Police Commissioner Ray Kelly should be arrested because he supplied the 15 guns.

Section 265.13 Criminal sale of a firearm in the first degree

A person is guilty of criminal sale of a firearm in the first degree when such person:

(1) unlawfully sells, exchanges, gives or disposes of to another ten or more firearms; or
...
Criminal sale of a firearm in the first degree is a class B felony.

And don't give me that line about their is some type of exemption. We have been trying for years to get the Assembly to pass a bill that would allow people to shoot at a range without a handgun license. It is easy to check, just call up any range and tell them that you have a handgun license but you want to bring a friend to shoot your handgun. They will tell you NO and that it is against NY law.
What law makers, they pass every anti-gun law that they can think of but somehow they don't think that the law applies to them self. They don't even know what the basic laws are.
